How long until Jeff Jarrett gets the strap

quote:

In June 2002, Jarrett and his father created a limited-liability company, J Sports and Entertainment and opened a new pro wrestling promotion, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). TNA aired in a weekly pay-per-view format until May 2004, when the promotion negotiated a TV deal with Fox Sports Net and began broadcasting Impact!. In November 2004, TNA began airing monthly pay-per-views instead of weekly pay-per-views, and in October 2005 Impact! moved to Spike TV. Panda Energy and its Chairman and CEO, Robert Carter, acquired a controlling interest in TNA in 2002, although Jarrett remained a minority owner.[24][25][26]

On the inaugural TNA pay-per-view on June 19, 2002, Jarrett took part in a Gauntlet for the Gold with the NWA World Heavyweight Championship on the line, but was eliminated by country singer Toby Keith. In the following months, Jarrett feuded with Scott Hall, Brian Lawler, and Brian Girard James. On November 20, 2002, Jarrett defeated Ron Killings to win the NWA World Championship with the assistance of Vince Russo.

Going off the last time Jeff Jarrett was in charge of a wrestling promotion with a TV deal, uh, almost immediately

He responded to New Japan telling him "don't do the Hitman cosplay at Wrestle Kingdom" by not only wearing it at WK and getting fired for it, but still doing it in America for GFW 4 years later. I don't know if it's out of protest or he genuinely thinks it looks cool, because he sure as poo poo ain't getting paid for doing it

*narrator voice* when keepin' it cosplay... goes wrong

Jeff Jarrett finally got GFW a tv deal by cannibalizing the company he founded. This still blows my mind to this day.

In that case, it's not nearly as bad as I thought (the commentary thing on that Roode clip), though it is obviously being posted now to try and make people think he's come in from NXT.

They should just keep doing this, but with increasingly older and and older footage.
